Renting a property requires a series of procedures, such as advertising the property, finding the right tenants, and dealing with any inconveniences that may arise during the process, among other things, which practically obliges the owner to be physically on site, which is not always possible. This practically forces the landlord to be physically on site, which is not always possible.

Thanks to technology, it is possible to simplify and streamline this entire process, offering the same guarantees as with the traditional method. From the publication of the property on digital platforms to the signing of rental contracts through electronic signatures or the management of payments. This not only ensures that owners can carry out all the necessary procedures without being physically present, but also improves the tenants' experience by providing a faster and more efficient process.

Below, we give you the keys that will allow you to rent your home without leaving home:

The importance of photographs‍

‍

When putting your property up for rent, especially if you intend to do so remotely, it is crucial to invest time and effort in creating a high quality visual catalog that includes detailed photos and even videos, both of the interior of the property and of the common areas and, if possible, of the building as a whole.

This visual catalog must meet certain minimum criteria to be effective. First of all, it is essential to make the most of natural light, as it enhances the spaces and makes the rooms look more welcoming and spacious. In addition, it is essential that the photographs are well focused and sharp; for this purpose, the use of a tripod and a good quality camera is recommended. Videos should be clear, showing each area of the home in detail.

The main objective is to provide the potential tenant with an accurate and attractive image of the property they are interested in renting. By providing a complete and quality visual representation, the aim is to eliminate any doubts about the condition and features of the property. This is especially important for long distance rentals, where face-to-face visits may be complicated or impossible.

Digital signature  

‍

Technology helps to solve the difficulties that can be caused by not being physically in the same place as the property you are trying to rent. The electronic signature or digital signature has simplified the process of signing rental contracts, allowing both landlords and tenants to do so remotely, legally and saving time and effort. In addition to guaranteeing the authenticity of the document, it offers several advantages:    

• Ease and convenience: With secure platforms, the contract can be signed without the need to travel or possess an electronic ID.  

• Security and trust: It guarantees the identity of the signatories and the integrity of the document.  

• Speed and efficiency: It speeds up the process of signing rental contracts.  

The electronic signature is also used in other real estate documents and processes, such as reservation and purchase and sale contracts, payment authorizations and home insurance.
